National Minority Health Month

Every April, the HHS Office of Minority Health (OMH) observes National Minority Health Month to highlight the importance of improving the health of racial and ethnic minorities and reducing health disparities.

Experiences with racism and discrimination can contribute to mistrust of the healthcare system among racial and ethnic minority groups, leading to mistrust of factual health related information.

OMH is proud to announce the theme for National Minority Health Month 2022: Give Your Community a Boost!
